This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of radioactive element in right pleural cavity, open approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0WW901Z

UNSPSC 85761823 Revision of radioactive element in right pleural cavity, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual recent state and local procurement activity. The code's medical-procedure taxonomy does not align with the representative opportunities posted under it. Recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve revision of radioactive elements or invasive pleural procedures. The issuing bodies include city retirement boards, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county commissioner procurement offices.

The source contains no evidence that this code captures relevant recent procurement activity in any coherent geographic region or service line. The single opportunity most directly related to clinical medical services — the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) — involves baseline and periodic examinations for ferry workers under the supervision of occupational medicine physicians. The Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) focuses on medical record review and disability determination support rather than surgical or procedural interventions. No recent solicitations reflect procurement of invasive thoracic procedures or radioactive-element management. This code appears inactive for the work state and local governments are actually buying under it; business development professionals should verify whether the tagging reflects a taxonomy error or genuine procurement demand before pursuing opportunities in this category.
